Troubleshooting
WARNING: Before you begin any of the procedures in this section,
follow the Safety Instructions.
Self-Test
Your monitor provides a self-test feature that allows you to check whether your
monitor is functioning properly. If your monitor and computer are properly
connected but the monitor screen remains dark, run the monitor self-test by
performing the following steps:
1. Turn off both your computer and the monitor.
2. Unplug the video cable from the back of the computer.
3. Turn on the monitor.
The floating dialog box should appear on-screen (ag ainst a black background), if the
monitor cannot sense a video signal and is working correctly. While in self-test
mode, the power LED remains white. Also, depending upon the selected input, one
of the dialogs shown below will continuously scroll through the screen.

4. This box also appears during normal system operation, if the video cable
becomes disconnected or damaged.
5. Turn Off your monitor and reconnect the video cable; then turn On both your
computer and the monitor.
If your monitor screen remains blank after you use the previous procedure, check
your video controller and computer, because your monitor is functioning properly.
Built-in Diagnostics
Your monitor has a built-in diagnostic tool that helps you determine if the screen
abnormality you are experiencing is an inherent problem with your monitor, or with
your computer and video card.
NOTE: You can run the built-in diagnostics only when the video cable is
unplugged and the monitor is in self-test mode.
To run the built-in diagnostics:
1. Ensure that the screen is clean (no dust particles on the surface of the
screen).
2. Unplug the video cable(s) from the back of the computer or monitor. The
monitor then goes into the self-test mode.
58   Troubleshooting
3. Press and hold Button 1 on the front panel for 5 seconds. A gray screen
appears.
4. Carefully inspect the screen for abnormalities.
5. Press Button 1 on the front panel again. The color of the screen changes to
red.
6. Inspect the display for any abnormalities.
7. Repeat steps 5 and 6 to inspect the display in green, blue, black, white, and
text screens.
The test is complete when the text screen appears. To exit, press Button 1 again.
If you do not detect any screen abnormalities upon using the built-in diagnostic tool,
the monitor is functioning properly. Check the video card and computer.
